Hey everyone,
I started brewing not too long ago and now moved on the AG. I've decided to make my own mill as I has access to all the tools I need. I just finished the rollers on the lathe.
My question is how the two rollers are spun during milling. My first thought was that one is used to drive while the other is loose on a bearing and spins when the other is turned.
However, after looking up some designs here, specifically Yuri's, I'm thinking on whether the one roller is fixed? Yuri's design seems to have the roller offset on the axis so he can adjust the distance. This would mean that it's fixed and doesn't rotate?
